Whatever you did to get 1 million points a day on your site.. I want in.. the name of your marketer please!

I agree with condensing this into a heatmap or a set of RRDs.. one for X.. one for Y.. one for x * (y * max_height)).  You can easily query RRDs later on.. even multiple RRD files at once.

Also.. don't be afraid of flat files.  They compress well.

The bigger the region, the larger your possible savings.

Good idea, but I don't always have all points and regions will not be fully
filled
